External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar and his Chinese counterpart Wang Yi discussed developments in Sino-India ties, management of peace and tranquillity along border areas, and Kailash Mansarovar Yatra resumption, during their meeting in South Africa, the MEA said on Friday.

The two ministers met on the sidelines of the G20 Foreign Ministers Meeting in Johannesburg.

The meeting lasted for about 30 minutes, MEA Spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal told reporters in response to a query during his weekly briefing.

There was also an exchange of views on G20 and SCO, he added.
